[edit] Date format

Hello. How (wikified) dates are displayed is determined according to each user's preferences. If a date isn't wikified, then all you have to do is wikify it and it will display appropriately for each person, in the format they have chosen. As long as it is wikified, however, then it doesn't matter which format it uses. It will display according to each user's individual preferences. SWAdair | Talk 11:28, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Personal attacks

Arguments tend to be much weaker when you attack the person rather than the actions. You need only say that I committed a mistake and move on with it. I was hoping to get a compliment for at least being willing to fight vandals in probably >98% of my edits, but I suppose I'm just being naive. --Gpohara 21:04, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
